This image signifies female culture, the lipstick shoes and dress connotates all womans loves. The colour red also signifies love and passion for these things. They stand out on the black and white background which gives a emphasis on these being a womans priority.

The picture is very elegant which puts across that females are also of this nature.

TV drama - Waterloo road

Below i have posted a video of a piece of dramatic TV drama. It shows how a significant character in the series is killed off. In the first of the clips shown, a large amount of close ups are used to show the audience the characters emotion. A tracking shot is also used to follow one character down the stairs this gives the audience the feeling that they are moving with her, meaning they are also going into the room where the murder takes place. An over the sholder shot is also used to give a sense of intimidation from one character to another just before the character is shot. This creates a huge impact on the audience as the shot then changes to a close up so we can see the characters reaction and pain.

During todays lesson we learnt how different camera shots help to show emotion or relationships between different charachters and how each shot is purpously done to help the audience to relate or feel sorry for the charachter. One example of this was in the tv drama clip we watched, 'Grafters' we felt sympathy for the flat owner. A recaction shot/zoom in was used to make an impact of the event.
A two shot cut with single close up was used to create opposition, tension and conflict between the charachters, this makes feel sorry for the man on his own although we are feeling sorry for the man who owns the flat, the shot makes him seem intimidating to the man on his own.
